  Feel good foods that change moods
Updated 04 January 2004, 14.11
Can ice cream make you happy?
UK food manufacturers are producing natural foods that can literally make you feel good, or even help you sleep.

One company is producing "happy" ice cream, by adding essence of orchid, and by not letting any grumpy staff add the special mood-changing ingredient!

Special milk has extra melatonin, a hormone we produce when sleeping, because the company milk their cows after they've had a good sleep!

There are now plans to start producing stress-relieving biscuits!

Both the milk and the ice-cream have natural ingredients, and this comes as people are starting to buy more healthy food.

A study in The Grocer magazine showed crisps and some chocolate bars weren't being bought as much as before.
